So, last summer, after a long and difficult week weighing my options, I made the decision to step away from the Batman title, not to renew my DC contract, with the express purpose of moving fully into creator-owned comic books. For a while, there was a “keep a toe in the water” option that I explored, but I made the final decision that I couldn't do what I wanted to do in Gotham City when I was half-out the door, and I couldn’t imagine another project that would keep me in the work-for-hire fold.
Good day, I was just wondering if there was still a Blue Book coming out, or if it has been delayed? Excited about Sandman in the future, but craving the Blue Book presently!
Holy shit!!!! Ok real quick because I know no one gives a shit about me.
I’ve read a million comics in my time. Just this past summer, I started SANDMAN. And a month or so later, I crowned it the greatest comic ever (and for me to crown something the new GOAT….if u know me….that means something).
Then I read the OG books of magic. Very good.
Then yesterday, I just finished mike Carey’s 75 issue Lucifer run. And it wasn’t Sandman GOAT great, but it’s an EASY top 10 all time comic for me. Insanely good. That entire universe is insane!
So one day later, to see this announced. It’s a true HOLY SHIT HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!
Dude that's some fucking cover. Jesus. I even love how it leans into an almost androgyous quality for The Corinthian, and makes his style very 'rich but dresses down instagram influencer'. It's an astounding image.
I am so damn glad you are writing this. The Corinthian has been one my favorite characters for many years and I think you are going to be absolutely fantastic on this!
I'm so excited about this! Love The Sandman and agree, The Doll's House is one of my favorite stories within it. The Corinthian is one of those characters you'll always remember. I'm so excited you get to join The Sandman Universe! I would be over to moon over hearing anything from Neil Gaiman too. Congratulations!! I already asked our LCS to add SUNC to the pull list. I can't wait!
I know nothing about the sandman. But it must be good if it brought you back under the spell of big comics so quickly. That guys just got a raise I bet. Lol. Excited to check it out. 🧅♣️
Thought we were getting new Blue Book yesterday
Ack! I goofed and didn't schedule the post even though it was locked and loaded, ready to go. It'll be out tomorrow at 2:30pm ET!

I had it locked and ready to go and forgot to schedule it like a dummy. So it'll be out tomorrow afternoon at 2:30pm ET!

Carey's Lucifer is ALSO on my top 10 :)
Hell yes!

James, quick question. Are Mr. Agony and Ecstasy different from the Hellblazer Agony and Ecstasy characters?
Some communication as to why there was no update yesterday would be appreciated. If I’m paying for something that doesn’t exist, that’s not cool.
No Blue Book today???
The Sandman is such an amazing piece of work. It must be great to get to play with all the cool toys.
This is like reading an announcement from the person who invented peanut butter & jelly coming together. Yes. I cannot wait.

Amazing!!
Never read Sandman before. I'll be your Huckleberry.
You don't get to hold a prominent position at a large company without playing dirty and keeping cards up your sleeve I guess.

So happy to hear! Sandman will probably always be my absolute favorite series. Good luck in that world
